Teacher Forced Kid to Sit by Taping Him to a Chair

When a kid dares to act like a kid and, for example, doesn’t want to sit down, the best thing to do is to force him. If you, by any chance, are a teacher and have duct tape, you should, definitely, tape the kid to a chair.

This is what happened in Oregon, where a teacher taped one of his students to a chair, because he didn’t want to sit down.

According to the Seattle Times, a teacher from the Oakridge School District was suspended after allegedly taping a 9-year-old boy from the class to a chair.

Don Kordosky, the superintendent from the Oakridge Elementary School didn’t make public the teacher’s identity but said she has been suspended last week after the boy’s mother reported the incident.

Becky Faile, the mother, said in some interviews with the local television that the teacher began taping her kid form the knees and continued until she reached to his chest. All that because the child refused to sit down.

Faile said that was not an excuse to humiliate the boy in front of the whole class and added that she contacted a lawyer.

According to the Seattle Times, the Oregon law mentions that a teacher can use “reasonable physical force upon a student” when he thinks it is necessary.

I guess the teacher thought that duct tape was reasonable enough.
